I'm not a good person to resolve these types of problems. I can, however, articulate how I perceive the problem. Feel free to correct me.

Your current directory is probably something like: C:\Matrix Games\Campaign Series\. All those folders and files you mentioned remain in this directory even after you uninstalled. When you reinstall, they are somehow interferring with your efforts to patch.

Scud's suggestion is essentially to rename the directory after uninstalling to something like C:\Matrix Games\Extra. All those folders and files should not be in the way when you reinstall. When you reinstall, the reinstall will automatically creat a directory like this: C:\Matrix Games\Campaign Series. Because it's clean (without any of the remnant folders and files, which have been shifted elsewhere by renaming the directory), you should be able to patch, and you should have a clean version 1.04.

The problem then becomes how to reintroduce all those files you put in the Extra directory back into the Campaign Series directory. It seems like when dropping them back into the Campaign Series directory, something should get fouled up, but I wouldn't know why or how.
